The fish is nocturnal and shelters in caves and under ledges during the day.[1] MorphologyThe pineconefish is yellow with distinct large scales outlined in black.[1] It has light-producing organs filled with luminescent bacteria on each side of the lower jaw, the purpose of which is not known, but may help it to see at night or to attract prey. The fish grows to 17 cm, but is more commonly found up to 12 cm.[2] In captivityPinecone fish are often kept by aquarists because they are not aggressive and easy to keep. In aquaria, they are usually fed fresh marine foods or brine shrimp.
